A popular after-hours hangout for Royal Oak's trendier crowd, Pronto! offers a stylish menu whose European influences are apparent, including several deliciously innovative lunchtime delights and made-to-order deli-style sandwiches. The popular dishes, however, are the vegetarian lasagna, roulade made with hummus and avocado, and a grilled chicken and pepper jack sandwich called "Chuck's Too Hot To Handle." The restaurant and bar are separated but still allow for easy movement. After the restaurant winds down, the bar side begins to rev up, and it's a great place to go and have a cocktail or late night appetizer.

Get ready for the prospect of communal dining, the din of conversation, and amazing food at this casual eatery. Fresh ingredients go into each dish, and the selection of soups and omelets changes regularly as proof. Vegetables from the market show up in both, and everything is perfectly prepared and delicious. Hash browns are great, the reuben sandwich is hefty, and the potato-leek soup is rich and flavorful. While lines are often standard on Saturday, weekday lunches are also fantastic and not as wait-intensive.
